I have just quickly checked the shovel and it does indeed do what I 
said. See 
http://hg.rabbitmq.com/rabbitmq-shovel/file/default/src/rabbit_shovel_worker.erl, 
in particular:
- the worker links the upstream and downstream connection processes to 
itself
- the worker traps exits
- when getting an exit signal from either connection process it terminates
- on termination it closes all connection processes

...after which the supervisor logic will kick in and eventually restart 
the worker.
